Field Configuration

Before starting the field configuration, please follow the instructions for creating custom fields: Create a Custom Field

 

 

Step 1: Set a name and description

Provide a good name for the new custom field. Make it descriptive, concise, and easy to understand for others who will use it. Avoid using ambiguous or overly technical terms.

 

 

Step 2: Configure your custom field

The field allows you to choose from a pre-defined set of field sizes and calendar styles.

 

 

Step 3 (Optional): Dependent date

The value of the Calendar field can depend on other date fields, such as the due date, for example. If you wish to have such a dependency, you can configure it in the date field select.

This option does not work when used in Jira Service Management
